    	I have created a module for the extensions.c in a 1.8.0beta3
    release of the server that fulfills a couple of requests I have seen on
    this list recently.  It provides a list of all variables in all stack
    frames of a given task, including the current one--allowing access to the
    variables defined in a task in the #0 traceback-handler.  It also allows
    variables to be undefined or altered in any frame of any task, including
    the current one.  The latter two features are wiz-only for tasks besides the
    current one--I am sure that security holes would be introduced otherwise.
    	The documentation and extensions.c file can be found at
    ftp://neon.ci.lexington.ma.us:1221/pub/DSA_extension.tar.Z
